I was feeling sorry for DisFanx4, but then her screen name sounded so familiar to me and I was pretty sure she had said something on here that was pretty awful and low and behold I found it. So basically DisFanx4 thinks since some MAW kids get better they shouldn't get FOTL. Basically downplaying a child who has life threatening cancer because they may get better to someone who has autism because there is no cure for autism
. Yes, autism is tough, but in no way is it the same as having a child that may never see tomorrow and if they get better isn't that awesome; a miracle. Why would you begrudge them a MAW trip just because they got better? :

I know o will probably be flamed for this and expect it, but I believe there is a fundament lack of human compassion these days. There are a lot of people dealing with problems I agree but are those problems as long lasting as a life of someone with special needs?? I totally understand the concept of how the make a wish program started and here comes the flames but a lot of those kids survive and go on to live happy "normal life's" last time I checked there isnt a cure or a pill for a child/adult with Autism. Still not saying they should get what is called special treatment but if you want to talk fair then let's talk what's really fair. My compassion goes out to everyone dealing with special accommodations whatever they may be
